Bird Bird used to hit the doorpost all the time, right?

Didn't BB used to always bump into his doorpost whenever he left his room? Now he ducks (punn intended) all the time. When did this change, and was there an educational lesson in it?

I don't know when this changed but I'm it was another one of those things that was quietly dropped sometime in the 80's.

Wow, now that I think of that, I must have overlooked that. I still watch the old episodes, but I never really paid that much attention to Big Bird, because I wasn't that crazy about him. Thanks for pointing that out.:wink:

I think that was only in the very early seasons...and it was a part of his "not so bright" personality. After he smartened up, he was less of a Clutz and able to dodge the door frames. I guess when you're 8'2" you'd have to learn that lesson sooner or later, eh?
